I WAS STUDYING SOME ELECTRONIC MUSIC YESTERDAY TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT THE SCALE/CHORDS/keys of SOME OF THE SONGS I LIKE. I used BOOKS AND STUFF but I COULDN'T find out.please help.
WHAT'S MORE, I AM NOT A MUSICIAN I WISH I WOULD...
p.s: I am sorry about the capital letters.
THE CHORDS ARE:

B-D / C#-E / D-F# / E -G# = BOOKA SHADE

ANOTHER SONG = DEADMAU5

F-C-G / F-G#-D# / G#-D#-A# / C#-F-C / C#-D#-G#/ F#-C#-G#

ANOTHER SONG:

E-A-C-E / D-A-C-D/ G-B-D-G/C-G-C-E/B-G-B-G/D-G-B-D

WHAT'S THE THEORY BEHIND THOSE SONGS?
KEY,SCALE,CHORD NAMES?
AND PLEASE HOW DID YOU FIGURE IT OUT SO I CAN IN THE FUTURE.

THANKS.

Booka Shade is a run of parallel thirds going up a minor melodic scale (i.e. the sixth degree is raised a semitone from G to G#). The song is probably in the key of B minor but I would have to hear it to say for sure.

The Deadmau5 is a lot of sus4 chords. The sense of key would be determined in this case by which note is in the bass.

Another Song is Amin, Dmin7, G, C, G/B, G/D. This song is probably in the key of A minor, but again the sense of home key would depend on the harmonic rhythm and the bass line.
